Description
May not be in it's prime but lot's of extras and work has been done. Type R bodykit, panoramic roof, reverse camera - something you rarely gonna see in these cars, black wrap on the bonnet and window frames, Pioneer infotaiment, sat nav, 600W subwoofer with Pioneer amplifier, hands free bluetooth conectivity, custom sprayed DOTZ alloy wheels, auto lights, auto wipers, most of the bulbs are upgraded to the better ones.
Mechanic bits: brand new brakes all around and tyres a year ago. Underneath the bonnet, at least half of the parts are new: air con components, water pump, alternator, air con pump, battery (few months ago) and many other things i forgot right now. Owned this car for 10 years. Done just around 40k miles. Only Shell Premium diesel been used.
Bad bits: a lot. It's a 20y old car. If you are looking for a sparkling toy without a scratch - this car is not for you. Car had 2 accidents in the past. One cat N when it was brand new (2008). And another one cat S (6 years ago). My wife rear ended another car in the traffic. Bought all the parts needed and repaired in the local garage. Have all the pictures and receipts.
What else...Tinted windows all around shows visible wear and tear. Engine sound is not great (check video). Nothing gonna go wrong, i actually bought it like this 10y ago. I was told by a mechanic that engine chain tentioners are a bit loose but will not fail. Ever. Quoted 800 to replace as it's a 6h job and i never bothered. It's just a sound. Nothing what 600W subwoofer can't outperform.
Both mirrors don't fold with the press of the button. I made it work but the mechanism is broken so it wasn't folding the correct way. Air con/digital clock screen has a problem like 90% of these civic has - pixels sometimes are not fully lit. Soldering connectors fixes that. ( Clutch been changed right before i bought this car, so around 40k miles ago. Interior wear and tear is..acceptable i would say.
I know you can get similar cars with lower miles for less. But i know what i'm selling. Just a year ago i've spent over 1000 on new brakes and tyres. You can check online all the MOTs. Nothing major recently.

Full vehicle report available on request.
The reason i'm selling it because it is a secondary car now and i only use it to drive a mile or two weekly. For a diesel car its not a good use. Buying a small petrol city car right now.
